This page outlines the two core parts of the FreeStyle Libre ecosystem: a discreet, flexible glucose sensor with an applicator, and the intuitive FreeStyle LibreLink smartphone app. The sensor uses a thin filament inserted under the skin to measure glucose in the interstitial fluid every minute. Users obtain up-to-date readings, trend arrows, eight-hour glucose history, and note features—supporting holistic diabetes management with no finger-pricks required (though scans should be performed at least every eight hours for complete tracking).
